I wired a browser agent to buy its own compute. It holds a passkey capability scoped to one vendor, pays from a metered budget, and every purchase lands as a signed receipt I can audit offline.
yaml
capabilities:
- browser.navigate: { domains: ["vendor.example"] }
- pay.x402: { budget: "12 cr/day" }Nothing exotic in the kernel config; the whole thing is stock guards. The interesting part was teaching it to stop shopping.
